Russia is in political turmoil once again. Vladimir Makarov, a brutal leader and former associate of Imran Zakhaev, has set in motion a series of events that will threaten global security. After a series of vicious terrorist attacks, the situation is deemed dangerous enough for Task Force 141, led by Captain Soap MacTavish, to be deployed to Russia and Kazakhstan. There, the force must fight its way through near white-out conditions to infiltrate a secret military base hidden in the mountains. After detonating a large volume of explosives, the team loses the pursuit on snowmobiles. Task Force 141 is later deployed to Rio De Janeiro to capture an arms dealer linked to the plot by ballistics data, eventually being led to the barren lands of Afghanistan. But the intel Task Force 141 is receiving is likely inaccurate, as even they do not understand the danger of Makarov's sinister plot.
Co-operative gameplay will not be included. Instead, a new mode called "Special Ops" will be featured. Two gamers may play together in several fast-paced action missions that are more difficult than the normal campaign and will not be related to the main storyline, similar to Mile High Club in CoD4.
NPC's will carry custom loadouts and different melee stances will be added, for example, holding a pistol with the combat knife out allowing for faster knife attacks. Torture and hostage situations will be featured as well.
New usable equipment: Riot shield, ice picks, the AT4, thermal scope, AUG scope, sniper scope, laser and/or flashlight, heartbeat sensor
Soap MacTavish is now a Captain in the SAS. Players will take the role of one of his subordinates.
Customizable loadouts will be featured in the campaign and "Special Ops".
Included will be a level in Rio De Janeiro, a level in Siberia, a level on an oil tanker, and a stealth-based oil pipeline level where players will be undersea in scuba gear.
Swimming will be a new mechanic.
Trucks, tanks, and helicopters will be featured and possibly controllable.
In Cliffhanger, the first mission in campaign, Captain Soap MacTavish and Sergeant Gary "Roach" Sanderson are somewhere in the Tian Shan Mountain range in extremely frigid conditions. The level starts off with them climbing up the side of a mountain face, but soon finding themselves blowing up a fuel depot and escaping from the base on snowmobiles whilst being chased by Hinds.
Activision announced that they plan to release a minimum of two map packs. Confirmed by Microsoft, this downloadable content will be available for the 360 before other platforms.
Retail editions: Regular [game disc and manual in a standard plastic case - $60], Hardened [game disc, manual, art book, steel case, and a code to download the original Call of Duty game - $80], Prestige [includes all content of the Hardened Edition, as well as fully-functional night vision goggles imprinted with the Modern Warfare 2 logo and a sculpted head stand of Soap MacTavish - $150]
Spin-offs: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare: Mobilized [Nintendo DS version], Call of Duty: Modern Warfare [Wii version of CoD4]
--
My speculations:
[Old] Sergeant Paul Jackson was given the nickname "Roach" after surviving Khaled Al-Asad's nuclear explosion.
Kamarov is Makarov.
By the way, I'm almost positive someone's going to say something like, "It's just called Modern Warfare 2." Awareness dropped when "Call of Duty" was removed, so they decided to bring the prefix back.
